Former Iowa Cubs Player/Coach Manny Ramirez Eyes Comeback in Taiwan

Manny Ramirez put toghether a stellar baseball career, highlighted by his brief tenure in the Cubs organization as a player/coach with Triple-A Iowa, but he’s not ready to hang up his cleats just yet. The quirky superstar hasn’t played professionally since 2014-15, when he posted a .648 OPS with three homers in 77 plates appearance for the I-Cubs in 2014, then had a .917 OPS with six homers for Aguilas in the Dominican Winter League.

An aborted comeback attempt in Japan could only satisfy his jones for so long, which is why he’s eying a another with Taiwan’s CPBL.
